John Atala Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Hey Everybody, This is my cinematography reel; Please tell me what you think, also, bear in mind that this is just the stuff that i get my hands on, most people disappear and i never see the material shot again. Thanks a lot for checking my stuff out! I try updating it every 15 days or so, so check back!!1 Thanks again http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-QTbwp_I4s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Rosenbloom Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 (edited) Well, at 5 minutes, there's just no way I'm going to watch it all. I watched up to a minute, and it seems like a mix of nice stuff and merely competent stuff. Cut out the merely competent material, and keep 2.5 minutes of stuff that's really eye-catching, with the best footage up front. Best, Jon.

Premium Member Walter Graff Posted April 20, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted April 20, 2008 CUT IT DOWN!!!! FAR TOO LONG. 2 minutes is even a lot. CUr music down then go from there with visuals. There are a lot of shots you can loose like doubles of the same scene. If I saw it once, twice will not make it better. And some of the shots are subpar to others. Loose them.

Saul Rodgar Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Listen to the men above! REPEAT AFTER ME: MUST CUT IT DOWN. My fave stuff is a third of the way in. The sunsets, beautiful woman reclining & in bathroom and then urban stuff in the middle. The tracking shot of the woman on bike is nice too.

John Atala Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Thanks a lot for the suggestions. The time is really a factor I've been wanting to cut down. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dax McKeever Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Yes, the others said it best: CUT IT DOWN. The only thing I may comment on also is, even in a reel, try to give it a story, an idea of expression, a moral theme. It is fairly well though [when you cut it shorter], perhap because the argentinian/brazilian instrumental tango keeps it going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
